During the Clone Wars, Darth Sidious and Count Dooku assembled the Dark Acolytes — a network of Dark Jedi and fallen Force-users who served the Confederacy as assassins, spies, and commanders, yet were forever barred from true Sith status by the Rule of Two. In this episode of Star Lores, we explore the most feared dark side adepts of the CIS, from Asajj Ventress and Savage Opress to Sev'rance Tann, Quinlan Vos, and Sora Bulq, and how Darth Sidious used them to corrode galactic faith in the Jedi Order.

Justin reviews "Chapter 7: Call to Oblivion" and "Chapter 8: The Creeping Fear" of Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord, streaming now on Disney+!The Empire tightens its grip on Janix as a second Inquisitor — the Eleventh Brother — joins Marrok in the hunt. Maul's crew fractures under the pressure, with betrayal and tragedy hitting the Shadow Collective hard. Then, in episode 8, Maul is forced to confront something far more dangerous than any Inquisitor: his own past. Force-induced visions drag him back to Dathomir, to Savage, to the brutal training under Darth Sidious himself — and the haunting question of why he could never break free. Meanwhile, Devon is inching closer to Maul's side, Rylee is in Imperial custody, and the finale is set up with a massive tease: Dryden Vos and Crimson Dawn are coming to Janix.⚠️ SPOILER WARNING — This review is spoiler-filled. Watch the episodes first!
Darth Maul: Shadow Lord es la prueba definitiva de que en Star Wars caer por un pozo partido por la mitad no significa morir… significa terminar convertido en un “combina tus piezas” de Lego. Y desde entonces el pobre Maul se convirtió en la oferta clásica del Carrefour: “Segunda mitad al 50%.” En este nuevo programa de Frikingos de la Galaxia analizamos Darth Maul: Shadow Lord, la serie animada situada pocos años después de la Orden 66, donde Darth Maul intenta reconstruir su imperio criminal tras ser traicionado por los mismos sindicatos criminales que él había unido en The Clone Wars. Vamos, que Maul montó su propio LinkedIn del inframundo galáctico… y aun así le hicieron la cama. Nuestro capi, Lord Bolketñon, contará con las colaboraciones de Joseja y Rulo para hablar de Darth Maul, Darth Sidious, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Devon Izara, los Inquisidores, Crimson Dawn, Darth Vader, trauma Sith, manipulación emocional, crimen organizado galáctico y de por qué Maul no necesitaba una aprendiz: necesitaba terapia. Porque si algo demuestra Shadow Lord es que el odio puede llegar a ser una motivación muy cansina. Y si no, que se lo pregunten a Twitter. ¿Es esta una de las mejores series animadas de Star Wars? ¿Funciona Maul como villano trágico? ¿Devon Izara es la nueva gran caída al lado oscuro? ¿Y habría cambiado toda la galaxia si Maul hubiese entrado en el Senado gritando: “¡EL VIEJO ESE ES UN SITH!”? Todo eso y mucho más en un programa lleno de análisis, teorías, humor friki, trauma galáctico premium y Sith, con peor gestión emocional que muchos grupos de WhatsApp. Síguenos en nuestras redes: -YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@frikingosdelagalaxia4365 - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FrikingosGalaxy?locale=es_ES - X (antes Twitter): https://x.com/FrikingosGalaxy - Instagram: https: //www.instagram.com/frikingosdelagalaxia/ - Ivoox: https://www.ivoox.com/podcast-frikingos-galaxia-cine-y_sq_f1417787_1.html - Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/es/podcast/frikingos-de-la-galaxia-cine-y-ocio/id1479825939 - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0LCxVBSt3Kt9cDhlcLKeZc

La serie Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord presenta Darth Maul en busca de venganza hacia su antiguo maestro Darth Sidious, a la vez que va preparando su propio equipo. Protagonizado por Sam Witwer, Gideon Adlon, Dennis Haysbert y Wagner Moura. Los 10 episodios de la serie ya están disponibles en Disney+.
Darth Tenebrous takes center stage in this episode as Christian Ashley and TJ Blackwell dive deep into the shadowy world of the Sith. Known primarily as the master of Darth Plagueis and a precursor to Sheev Palpatine, Tenebrous is a pivotal, yet often overlooked, figure in the Star Wars lore. The duo explores Tenebrous's ambitions, including his attempts to manipulate the Force and his visionary schemes that shaped the future of the Sith. They also tackle the complexities of the Rule of Two, a principle that has governed the Sith for ages, and how Tenebrous's legacy intertwines with the galaxy's ultimate villainy. With their signature blend of wit and insight, Christian and TJ shed light on the essence of this enigmatic Sith Lord while having a few laughs at his expense. Christian Ashley and TJ Blackwell delve into the dark and twisted lineage of the Sith in their latest podcast episode, focusing on the enigmatic Darth Tenebrous. The discussion kicks off with a light-hearted banter that sets the tone for a deep dive into the lore surrounding this lesser-known Sith Lord. As they navigate through the complexities of the Rule of Two established by Darth Bane, they unravel how Tenebrous played a pivotal role in shaping the future of the Sith, particularly his influence over Darth Plagueis and, indirectly, Darth Sidious himself. The hosts cleverly contrast Tenebrous's ambition and cunning with the more infamous figures of the Sith, providing listeners with a fresh perspective on the dark side's history. The conversation takes a whimsical turn as they explore Tenebrous's unique characteristics as a Bith—a species often relegated to background roles in the Star Wars universe. Christian and TJ emphasize the importance of diversity in storytelling, especially when it comes to the portrayal of villains. They reflect on how Tenebrous's lesser-known exploits, such as his attempts to manipulate the Force and his involvement in starship construction, highlight the intricate web of power and deceit that defines the Sith legacy. The episode wraps up with a thought-provoking discussion on the implications of Tenebrous's existence (or non-existence) on the overarching narrative of Star Wars, leaving listeners to ponder the ripple effects one character can have on an expansive universe.Takeaways:Darth Tenebrous is a lesser-known Sith Lord who played a pivotal role in the lineage of evil, influencing both Plagueis and Sidious in their dark pursuits.The Rule of Two, established by Darth Bane, defines the dynamic between master and apprentice, highlighting the tension and ambition characteristic of Sith relationships.Tenebrous's ambitions included projecting his consciousness through time to possess the Chosen One, showcasing a complex layer of Sith lore that intertwines with the broader Star Wars narrative.The podcast cleverly contrasts Tenebrous's strategic genius with his eventual downfall, emphasizing the irony of Sith ambition leading to their own destruction.Christian and TJ shed light on Tenebrous's manipulation of the Force and technological advancements, which laid groundwork for the chaos seen in the Galactic Senate during the prequels.The discussion dives into the unique aspects of Tenebrous as a Bith Sith Lord, breaking norms of traditional Sith characterizations and enriching the Star Wars universe with diversity..Be sure to check out our merch, find extra content, and become an official member of Systematic Geekology on our website:https://systematic-geekology-shop.fourthwall.com/.Check out all of our annual theme series for 2026, "The Faces Behind Us":https://player.captivate.fm/collection/dd903597-98be-49ed-998c-5cdaf73b6af4.Listen to our other Star Wars episodes:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/8a69b978-b30c-4515-9e5d-a38a84cc367f.Check out other episodes with Christian:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/ebf4b064-0672-47dd-b5a3-0fff5f11b54c.Check out other episodes with TJ:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/f4c32709-d8ff-4cef-8dfd-5775275c3c5eMentioned in this episode:Join our Facebook group and Discord ServerFind our Facebook group, "Priests to the Geeks", then join our Discord server with this link to continue on the conversation with us!DiscordThe Anazao Podcast NetworkBe sure to check out the network website to see other podcasts trying to engage honestly with Scripture, Theology, Pop Culture, Martial Arts, Science, and more!Anazao Podcast NetworkBecome a member of Systematic Geekology on our Website!Check out the link to become a member of Systematic Geekology!

Welcome back to our Maul: Shadow Lord recaps, here on For The Republic: A Love Letter to Star Wars Animation! This week, Andrew (@StarlightAndrew) & Conor (@DepaBanana) are here to discuss Chapters 7 & 8 of Shadow Lord! Going inside Maul's mind and getting glimpses of the moments that made him who he is, we get perhaps the best character study we've seen of Maul as a character, and how Darth Sidious' actions towards him have motivated him through hate and revenge against his former master. We also see our heroes attempt to make it off Janix, the arrival of Inquisitor Crow with Marrok to face Maul, and Two-Boots' morality questions about the Empire finally coming full circle.

Darth Maul está acostumbrado a seguir, sin ninguna duda, las órdenes de su Maestro. Pero al sentir algo que se aproxima al miedo en Darth Sidious, la duda comienza a crecer en el aprendiz. Discutimos este momento en este episodio bono de En Las Sombras!
Hunter and Jessica are diving straight into the gorgeous, neon-soaked, Blade Runner-esque underworld of Janix for the two-part premiere of Maul: Shadow Lord. Everyone's favorite half-a-Sith is back, proving that surviving being sliced in two just requires a little magical Zabrack stubbornness—and Sam Witwer's incredible voice acting. The hosts break down a surprisingly brutal opening heist, noting that while this might be an animated show, the local droids and getaway cars are getting absolutely shredded. Meanwhile, we meet the local law enforcement: a coffee-chugging, workaholic detective named Lawson who hilariously refers to lightsabers as "laser swords," and his emo droid, Two Boots. As rival syndicate bosses literally break bread and serve up severed banker-droid heads for dinner, Maul swoops in to orchestrate a chaotic prison break. His endgame? Recruiting a young, imprisoned Jedi named Devon to fashion her into the ultimate weapon to take down Darth Sidious. Hunter and Jessica also debate whether Maul and Thrawn would make the ultimate "Batman and Robin of sinisterness" and tease some upcoming Babu Frik LEGO news for The Mandalorian and Grogu.

This week we're diving into Maul: Lockdown—a brutal, high-octane story that drops Darth Maul into a gladiator prison where survival is optional and chaos is guaranteed. As Maul goes undercover to track down a deadly superweapon for Darth Sidious, he battles through inmates, crime lords like Jabba the Hutt, and some truly nightmare-fuel creatures—all while barely breaking a sweat. We break down the story, explore what it adds to Maul's character, and ask the important question: what happens when you throw the galaxy's most dangerous Sith into the worst prison imaginable? Spoiler: it goes very badly for everyone else.Check us out on X @legendslookbackInstagramWe're back on YouTube!
We're going back to a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away!

Son of Dathomir, a 4-comic run from 2014, based on an unused story from The Clone Wars, is discussed, which links how Maul got from being imprisoned by Darth Sidious in Season 5 of TCW to his appearance in Season 7.

This week, James brings us everything we need to know about Maul. April 6th is the release of the first 2 episodes of the Maul TV Series, Maul: Shadow Lord. Before that comes out, we wanted you to know all about the man himself in this deep dive into what made him who he is. We break down Maul's origins, his training under Darth Sidious, and how his apparent death became the beginning of something far more interesting. From his rise to power on Mandalore to his role as a criminal mastermind, we explore how Maul transformed from a tool of the Sith into a character driven by revenge, survival, and ultimately purpose. We also discuss his relationships with key figures like Obi-Wan Kenobi, Savage Opress, and Emperor Palpatine, and how those rivalries shaped his destiny. Plus, we debate: is Maul truly a Sith, or something else entirely? Whether you're a longtime fan or just rediscovering Maul's story, this episode covers it all—his best moments, his most brutal fights, and the legacy he leaves behind. Grab your double-bladed lightsaber and join us as we unpack the tragedy, rage, and brilliance of Darth Maul in this epic adventure. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

THEORY SABERS - https://www.theorysabers.com/ MERCH - https://www.swtheorymerch.com/ Order 65, a contingency plan within the Republic's legal framework, authorized the Senate or the Supreme Commander, which in this case being, Chancellor Palpatine, to be removed from power if deemed unfit or treasonous. If this happened during the events of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, Order 65 could have drastically altered the galaxy's fate. By exposing Palpatine's manipulation and his secret identity as Darth Sidious, the Jedi could have united the Republic's forces, including the clone troopers, against him instead of being targeted by Order 66. This would have preserved the Jedi Order, potentially avoided the rise of the Empire, and allowed Anakin Skywalker to fulfill his role as the Chosen One without succumbing to the dark side. The survival of the Jedi would have meant a stronger, unified resistance against the Sith's influence, fundamentally changing the balance of power in the galaxy and preserving hope and peace for generations.

Korriban, the ancient homeworld of the Sith Species does not have a history filled with Hope. It's past is tainted with the blood of the fallen and the shadow of the dark side of the Force. But even with the native race, the sith people and their entire ability to naturally wield the power of the force, extinction was inevitable. But they did prosper for a time. The Sith People did not share anything in common with The Lords of the Sith we see in the Movies like Darth Vader and Darth Sidious, until the hundred-year darkness and the banishment of the dark Jedi exiles. This is a time period known as the hundred-year darkness, Long before the great hyperspace war from the Tales of the Jedi comics, this is where the very Jedi we love from the movies, their very ancestors, saw many disagreements in how the Force should be used and categorized. These debates would turn voilent and eventually Jedi would fight jedi, and cross lightsaers amongst themselves. This is referred to as the Great Schisms. And there were a few of these schisms that basically turned into civil wars. You would see Jedi use the dark side in the most horrific way, like mutating animals and people and transforming them into abominations - which a lot of the light-sided jedi believed to be sacrilegious. Basically you just insulted the force and life itself in the most disrespectful way ever. Eventually, the Jedi did vanquish their dark jedi brothers and sisters. But the jedi didn't execute these jedi who were on the losing side of the war. They only captured them and banished them. While many think this act is very noble and kind - the jedi had no idea how devastating this decision would be. This is how the first Sith lords would be created and the jedi would never be able to take back this choice, for it would eventually, thousands of years later, cause the very destruction of the jedi order. This is how the dark jedi exiles came to be known as the First Dark Lords of the Sith.◉ JOIN THE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/Q9sM3NJ52USupport the channel here: https://patreon.com/LordDagovere- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Follow Lord Dagovere ◉ Twitter: https://twitter.com/LordDagovere◉ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lorddagovere ◉ Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/lord_dagovere◉ Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Watch More Lord Dagovere!More Star Wars Reactions: The Mandalorian S1◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cftNy...The Mandalorian S2◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBupv...Clone Wars S7◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x02FV...The Bad Batch S1◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj_It...The Book of Boba Fett S1 ◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYFgk...Obi-Wan Kenobi S1◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHSTB...- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Welcome to the most HYPE and Enthusiastic Star Wars Reactor channel!

The Rule of Two is one of the most defining doctrines of Sith history, but did it truly fulfill its purpose? At its core, the Rule of Two sought to refine the Sith, ensuring that only the most cunning and powerful would survive. It succeeded in this regard—through it, Sith Lords like Darth Plagueis and Darth Sidious reached levels of influence and mastery unseen in previous Sith empires. However, Sidious himself proved to be the doctrine's greatest contradiction. He exploited the Rule of Two while secretly undermining it, gathering multiple apprentices and even seeking to render the system obsolete by achieving immortality. In doing so, he violated the very principle that had allowed the Sith to endure for a millennium.◉ JOIN THE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/Q9sM3NJ52USupport the channel here: https://patreon.com/LordDagovere- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Follow Lord Dagovere ◉ Twitter: https://twitter.com/LordDagovere◉ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lorddagovere ◉ Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/lord_dagovere◉ Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Watch More Lord Dagovere!More Star Wars Reactions: The Mandalorian S1◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cftNy...The Mandalorian S2◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBupv...Clone Wars S7◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x02FV...The Bad Batch S1◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj_It...The Book of Boba Fett S1 ◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYFgk...Obi-Wan Kenobi S1◉ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHSTB...- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Welcome to the most HYPE and Enthusiastic Star Wars Reactor channel!

Order 65, a contingency plan within the Republic's legal framework, authorized the Senate or the Supreme Commander, which in this case being, Chancellor Palpatine, to be removed from power if deemed unfit or treasonous. If this happened during the events of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, Order 65 could have drastically altered the galaxy's fate. By exposing Palpatine's manipulation and his secret identity as Darth Sidious, the Jedi could have united the Republic's forces, including the clone troopers, against him instead of being targeted by Order 66. This would have preserved the Jedi Order, potentially avoided the rise of the Empire, and allowed Anakin Skywalker to fulfill his role as the Chosen One without succumbing to the dark side. The survival of the Jedi would have meant a stronger, unified resistance against the Sith's influence, fundamentally changing the balance of power in the galaxy and preserving hope and peace for generations.

On this episode, Mike Cole joins me for a trek into the heart of darkness… THE ACOLYTE! The latest Star Wars series from Disney+, sure was… something. In our FULL SPOILER deep-dive into the season, we cover the “good”, the bad, the really bad, the terrible, and everything in between! Enjoy and thanks for listening!
Spiritual leaders on the somehow-still-peaceful planet of Bardotta are disappearing, and that Queen Julia has called upon the Senate for help. The ghost of Senator Onoconda Farr chimes in with an undignified snort, but no one in the Senate has a sense of clairaudience or of irony, and so it goes unnoticed. Chancellor Palpatine calls the Jedi Council to let them know it will in fact be a mismatched duo comedy episode starring bad cop Mace Windu and clown cop Jar Jar Binks. See, the Bardottans hate the Jedi, because they steal children, and so want Jar-Jar and no one else to come help them.When they arrive on Bardotta, we learn that the Dagoyan Masters, non-Jedi, non-Sith force wielders, are disappearing one by one. We also learn that Jar-Jar and Queen Julia are, let's say, more than friends. Shortly after this the queen disappears. The Bardottan council explains the source of the prophecy is the Frangawl clan, who worshiped a demon in a shrine below the temple, and we realize that this is not just a buddy cop movie with a side-helping of Orientalism, but an Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom pastiche.Our heroes journey to the caverns below the palace, where Jar Jar is immediately captured and placed in a cage hanging over lava. After a standard amount of Jar Jar hijinks, Master Windu locates him, and the battle rages! The cultists are defeated but the cult leader escapes with the still-captive queen. Jar-jar promises the Bardottan council for the second time that day that he and Mace will recover the queen.The Frangawl cult gets to take over the Bardottan government if Queen Julia isn't found. I'm not sure kidnapping is a good basis for transfer of power in governments, but at this point, as an American, maybe I should be more open to new ideas.Jar Jar breaks down what happened to the Bardotten master. The terms ‘crispy fried' and ‘force sucked right out of him' are referenced. Meanwhile the cultist Ornithopter lands on Geidi Prime, and if Julia is fitted with a heart plug to extract her living force I'm going to start enjoying this arc.The Great Mother (who?!) has told the cultists that they have Jedi on their tail. The cultists are being sneaky by dragging the kidnapping victim and a glowing sphere of living force through a crowded marketplace and Jar Jar and Mace still almost miss them.Mace and Jar Jar run into what looks like a genestealer cultist who sicks a couple Gundarks on them. Jar Jar's prehensile tongue comes into play, and somewhere Kit Fisto senses another erotic disturbance in the Force. There's talk of planetary alignment and apparently Lovecraftian cultists are now in the mix; we're one pair of Nike Decades away from a cultist connect four.Hey, it's Mother Talzin! More fighting with some rejects from the Uldaur raid and at this point I had to lay down for a while with some pretty severe WoW flashbacks. Mother Talzin and Mace fight, and she holds her own against a Jedi who made Darth Sidious look like a chump. Where was this when Grievous invaded Dathomir? Anyway Jar Jar rescues the Queen, Mother Talzin's scheme unravels and Mother Talzin dissolves with a scream…? The queen decides that maybe the Bardottens should reconsider their attitude towards the Jedi, and she just has the absolute worst judgment of anyone on this show and that's saying a lot.https://twitter.com/ClosingCrawlhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/closing-crawl/id1530133296https://www.closingcrawl.com/Merch at: https://bit.ly/spacetimetm
Now that both of us have had a chance to run the new Battle for Naboo Raid, we chat about the gameplay, requirements, and rewards.

Senator Amidala is apparently the only person responsible for aiding refugees, and apparently all money comes from the Banking Clan on Scipio. Amidala and her aide Teckla Minnau travel there and meet old friend, Rush Clovis. Clovis proves his good intentions by sneaking into Padme's bedroom, this bank has security almost as bad as Fortress Inquisitorius ! He explains that the Banking Clan is about to change its name to Bear-Stearns, as the vaults are almost empty.Chancellor Palpatine asks Padme to help Clovis and find out more about the missing money. Padme and Clovis head to his private apartments to make their Ocean's 2 heist plan to steals banking files. Teckla follows through on the play, but is assassinated by Bounty Hunter Embo: RSVP Teckla Minnau!Padme and Clovis review the data, but before they can act Padme is arrested for espionage. The Jedi send Anakin to Scipio to help; once he arrives and learns Clovis is involved, he becomes a raging pit of jealousy. Our heroes manage to escape, but as they do, Embo contacts Darth Sidious, who declares that going forward Sidious will deal with them personally. The space caricatures of ‘international' bankers are meeting in their steampunk lair - oof. Yoda meets Padme, Anakin and Rush Clovis and escorts them to the Chancellors office. Anakin gets possessive and picks a fight with Padme, which Clovis somehow wins simply by not being a raging dick. Obi Wan notices that Anakin is pretty angry, and they almost have a conversation about Anankin and Padme. Anakin outright lies about his relationship with Padme.Padme and Clovis engage in some forensic accounting. Clovis gets grabby. Anakin, who has presumably been using the peeping tom force power, barges in and proceeds to Force Choke Clovis. Clovis gets Anakin to put down his lightsaber and put up his dukes. Security is called and Clovis may be many things, but he aint no snitch. Padme tells Anakin to get lost. Anakin is heartbroken.The Separatists and the Republic vote to allow Clovis to become head of the banking clans (which, what the hell?). We open on Scipio as the transfer of power to Rush Clovis is about to begin. Dooku Spacetimes(™) with Clovis with demands and threats to raise the interest rates on the Republic, otherwise the Separatists will default on their payments.Padme relays this information to the Senate. Yoda and Chancellor Palpatine both want to investigate Clovis, but in their own ways. Back on Scipio, the separatists attack Padme's clone escort and Dooku arrives to take control. Padme is captured. Palpatine decides they must declare war on Scipio. Dooku FORCE…S Padme to shoot the separatist senator. Yoda sends an obviously conflicted Anakin to Scipio. Sidious and Dooku reveal that the banks will be placed under the control of the Supreme Chancelor… their plan all along. Padme warns Clovis that he has lost control. A Vulture droid is shot down and crashes into Clovis' office, causing Padme and Clovis to tumble over the edge. Anakin cannot save them both. Clovis apologizes for all he's done, and sacrifices himself.Palpatine gets control of the banks, but promises to relinquish power once the war is over… A promise I'm sure he'll keep.https://twitter.com/ClosingCrawlhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/closing-crawl/id1530133296https://www.closingcrawl.com/Merch at: https://bit.ly/spacetimetm
